I remember My Wife...I don't recall it being all that bad. M'Lord was dire and what was that other one about the Beeching Railway cuts? I wacthed all of those for Jeffrey Holland, though, because he's my best friend's cousin. true.
I've remembered a show that had Lorraine Chase and maybe David Essex in it. They were on a canal barge I might have dreamed this or made it up.

It was Katy Murphy, not Loraine Chase - I can't remember what it was called, but seem to recall that it was only semi-dismal.

Wasn't he a gypsy, with a little neck scarf?

Your mum's a gypsy with a little neck scarf.
I might have to buy that DVD now to see the little neck scarf. Why wasn't Lorraine Chase in it though, I ask myself? I bet I'll watch it and think, well, that was very poor, but had Lorraine Chase played the female lead, it would have been eminently watchable.
I'm now left wondering if there was a sitcom of roughly that era that she was in, because I'm sure I saw one and I'm sure it wasn't very good.
